Categories of physical fitness test included: height, weight body mass index (BMI), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), sit-forward-bend, one-minute sit-up, stand-broad-jump, 1,600-meters walk-run, and questionnaire on exercising habits. The results were analyzed with SPSS for Windows 17.0 statistic software for descriptive statistic and one-way ANOVA. Research Results: 84.9% of male police officers in Penghu County are with exercising habits, 22% of which chose swimming. Compare the test results of physical fitness with the same age level, 31-35 years old, and analyze with percentile rank norms comparison, the BMI ranked normal, body fat distribution-ideal, muscular endurance-very good, and flexibility-good. Compared with different age levels and time of service, there are no identical difference in sit-forward-bend and 1,600-meters walk-run; however, their BMI, WHR, one-minute sit-up, and stand-broad-jump had reached the identical difference (p＜.05). Conclusion: The middle age male police officers in Penghu County, who are older and/or senior than others, should not neglect the importance of weight control as well as build up correct dining habits.
